“Personally, I will be leaving Dana Point around 11 am.”
Based on the above, I will arrive at the Mobil station around 11:05, 11:10 at the latest.
If you are thinking that this event is planned a little “loose”, that was intentional. Yes, the official route to get to the campgound is in the “every rider for themself” concept. Personally, I will be leaving Dana Point around 11 am. If there are lost souls who cannot find the campsite, I can meet those souls at the Mobil station at the Pico exit off the I-5 in San Clemente. The route I will be taking will be I-5 south, to CA 76, to CA 79 to S2. It’s about 3 hours including stops.
The itinerary for Friday night starts off with Cadillac Margaritas at 5 pm and dinner at the campsite. Those so inclined can go into town and pick up groceries before margaritas. We will need ice and firewood. If you choose to get ice and/or firewood, get a separate receipt and you will be reimbursed. Also, if you pay for parking, get a receipt. You will be reimbursed for that also. Remember: no receipt, no reimbursement. We will plan the Saturday day ride on Friday night. Bring your nominations for routes and we will discuss. The author of the winning route will be the ride leader, but s/he can delegate that task. Don’t be shy. We will also select the person who will write the ride report for the SouthCoaster.
Saturday starts off with coffee and whatever breakfast you brought followed by the winning day ride. Saturday evening we will finish off the tequila and relive the ride of the day.
Sunday consists of coffee and stealing whatever breakfast is left over and policing the campground. The route home is the rider’s choice.
If there are any questions, post them here.
Is this the place?

Chino, CA 91710What would an edition of the SouthCoaster be without a misspelled name? They are like Easter eggs!
🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂I will be watching the radar, but as it stands right now, I would be riding 3 hours in the rain before breakfast. That’s not acceptable to this light weight.
Great tech day today.
Good job, Karl! Thanks for taking care of us.
Thanks also to Paul Nelson for hosting. Brought back some good memories.
I plan to sync carbs, but I probably need to adjust valves first. That means I’ll “Pull a SouthCoaster” by drinking coffee and eating donuts while I let the engine cool.
I’ll bring wheel weights for those who need them.
Bikram – I don’t have an issue with cross posting unless it conflicts with a SCBMWRC event. I thought I made that distinction pretty clear.
Thank you, Karl.
Jim – it is not a personal thing for me. I like you and the events you put on. I hope to participate in some myself, particularly Beerfest next year. It’s just that I don’t believe it’s right to use the club’s resources (website and FB page) to promote events which conflict with club events regardless which event posts first. I would hope you would attend BoD meetings to discuss future events to help us avoid conflicts.
…and with regards of which event posts first, it shouldn’t matter. The SouthCoaster event should take priority on SCBMWRC resources (website and FB page). Of course, if there is another event that the membership might be interested in, those who are putting the calendar together should take that into consideration. Your Beerfest post did not appear until November, long after Borrego Springs was planned and paid for. This should all be common sense and common courtesy, but I guess not.
I think the BoD should review the club’s policies on this issue. IMO, members should not promote conficting events using SCBMWRC resources. You have a FB page and friends. You should leave the promotion there if there is a conflicting SCBMWRC event. FWIW, the Borrego Springs event has been scheduled since the new BoD took office in July. Yes, the GS Giants event is also an issue. I have recommended to the BoD that they coordinate with you for the 2020 event so there is not a conflict, but you were not able to give me dates for the 2020 event. So, I have to disagree with you that there is a conflict and the malfeasence is using SCBMWRC resources (the website and FB page) to promote a non-SCBMWRC event.
Jim – You are using SCBMWRC resources (website and FB page) to promote a conflicting event.
Not cool!
